Well, I seem to have started off quite a discussion. It's interesting that Andreas seems to agree with me that OO isn't really for programming. And the use of ODF is extremely important for intercommunicability, a point which isn't taken by many MS addicts. But I'm not trying to use a database to write a form letter - I'm not even a fully-fledged business, just a freelance pianist. But I do like to play with applications, and occasionally write my own where I can't find a suitable share- or free-ware one. And Base just doesn't work well enough - too many bugs and I suspect not enough will to drive proper develop,emt - hence Andrea's comments on "Potemkin". Tom's comment on 4 languages being available is fine, but as the API's so impenetrable I feel it would have been better idea concentrate on getting one language right rather than four languages wrong! Others are at liberty to disagree. ----- Peter -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Problems-importing-an-OO-database-into-LO-tp3890826p3912142.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
